Chapter 15: The Punishment

Chapter 15: The Punishment

"That is what happened! I promise it was so not my fault! Not at all! I say it is that road. Sue the city for the money to replace the bikes, now isn't that a better idea than trying to punish us?" I asked Nurse Joy who was standing outside in the parking lot looking at all the um, destroyed stuff…

"I am not going to sue the city! Its laws are perfectly good, and I enjoy being a citizen here! Don't try to get me against the city that I loved and lived in my whole life! This is your fault and I am brining this to the authorities." She responded to me, no… NO! I don't want to go the Police I don't like them. They don't really like me that much either, but who does?

"Have you ever been thinking of moving to Goldenrod!? It is a very nice place and there is a lot of Goldeens, maybe some sick? You can sue the city then leave the place to go to Goldenrod! I heard they had good fish there! I went their once, but we lost a lot of money there when we went to the Breeding Center and I put the back of it on fire, by accident! But it was very-very small, like three feet!"

Man, she did not even respond this time, that is not very nice of her to do that! Well, that just sucks, we are now going to get in trouble with the whole city and the forester bear whom runs the Illex Forest.

This really reminds me of the Master of the Bellsprout tower. All we had to do was battle him., but still we had to pay him a lot of money! Basically all that I had after years of years of spending, I mean saving…! I did not take any money from the cookie jar… I wonder how that just got into my head…

She went into the Pokemon Center and too the phone behind her desk. She just forced us to sit down when she made the call so we did not try to interrupt her or anything, I had no idea why she did that though. She did not really talk loud, or I did not hear response because she did not even have it on speaker! I know what is she thinking of not letting me listen to the call!

I felt worried of what she was going to respond, I already had a bad reputation throughout the Johto League so far, is it possivle if I habve enough "bad" things against me that I won't be able to participate! If not then my whole dream of becoming a Pokemon Master! Wait, this is only Nurse Jenny, she id not going to do anything major on me. She must have been a troubled child sometime in her life, I mean she is not some goody two shoes like Nurse Joy is.

"If we get into trouble or have to pay then we're blaming you." Stacey complained her seat, as she seemed the most worried and nervous out of all of us, she never in trouble before? Yeah, she can just think that before we get our punishment, "And Alison too because she broke my bike!" She said after a few seconds of hesitation…

Not this again, this is going to make me annoyed, make me more annoying is what that means and no one wants me to be more annoying, as everyone thinks that I am just an 'pain' to everyone, but I know that they are just showing the love!

Nurse Joy came in with the 'punishment' for what we have done, but I'm still going to continue to blame the city for doing this as this is not our fault! We are just the victims here, I tell ya! "You first need to plant trees in the Illex Forest of where you burned it and Charity work. Pay some fines also, the usual, we know you are young, but you destroyed thousands of dollars worth of stuff."

"Why bother fixing it then, that only wastes money!" I blurted out, by accident, saying it out loud in the room, I really did not mean to say that out loud. I feel so embarrassed and stupid…

"That would ruin our society. Well you should go outside and wait for Officer Jenny to come out so you may take the consequences for what you have done." Actually, do I need to do that…today?

"Too bad this isn't just some normal person; if so we can just run for it, but no we had to get involved with the authorities, they are taking the time to scold at Alison for breaking by bike and to do some other thing, while concentrating on scolding." Okay, now I know officially for a fact that Stacey is obsessive with everything that she possessive.

I heard somewhere or read somewhere about…being nice to someone and comforting them when they are in a stupid situtation, wait I did not read that, someone told me, I just forgot where and I know I am going to tell myself 'What's new?'

***

"Still there is no car here! And it past four hours, twenty-four minutes and thirty-one seconds!" I complained to everyone else as I think we are being stood up!

"Officer Jenny stood us up! Now I will…oh never mind." Kyle responded then just stopped talking.

I think we should just leave, why don't ask the others, "We should just leave, I am getting tired of standing and staring at this lamp post, now let's go, she obviously got lost in the city that she patrols." You know, I don't care I want to leave and I want to do it now, right before I get some ice cream for being so paitent!

"Fine, let's go if we get in more trouble in Goldenrod then I don't care already. I already have a stalker that is keep annoying me about her cheaply made bike." Alison said, as she started walking off, the biker annoyer, Stacey, following her.

Okay…I just followed not really caring that it was nighttime and now we are leaving the town, it is dinner time and we have no dinner. What's wrong with this situation? I am not sitting down at a table and eating something, something good and tasty and fresh and, and, and…

"There is a gym in Goldenrod right…? I want to get my third badge, this journey seems to take forever with all this stuff in the way from the battle of me getting my badges, then myself going to the Johto League!" I want my third badge and I want it now! Now, now, now! It sounds very plain though…

"Yes! It is the metropolis in Goldenrod City! There is even a radio tower, a very big pokemart, an underground salon, and many other stuff! You can even win a free pokeball at the radio tower if you win the lottery they give out!" Stacey said once I asked, she must of loved that city if she ever went there, "There is a bike shop too, so Alison can buy me a new one once we get there! Isn't that just so great?"

"Yes…" The three of us said in unison.

"We have to go through the Illex forest, which is actually huge because it is just as big as a big city, and very dark even in daylight, lot's of bugs and expect to be lost there a lot, I know we will if we got lost going here, which is suppose to be easy to get through." Kyle commented, he was the one who knew liked everything, you know that kind of type. Even though, his advice never helps, no matter how much he tries, but that's okay!

"I hate that place, I went through it once, but it took me only a week since I had my compas, and some other stuff, but I will guide you through it, only if Alison gives me my bike back in a few minutes."

"I'd rather wait for a Park Ranger then to give you money, I have none! That is why we do not buy anything, I have been to two cities with these people and the only thing that I bought throughout the whole entire trip was a paper wait of a Pidgey on some sort of tree, sitting on a branch, I got that since it was only a nickel." Alison said as obviously Stacey was addressing her.

Just continue walking, I told myself as I just did it, ignoring the fact that the two girls were at it again, man how annoying can those two be? All they did was fight, scream, and pull each others;' hair once in a while, they were never met to be friends or even travel with each other, but that is her problem; not mine!

That makes me thinking of fighting that topic of where my two rivals are, Uri and Mitchell. I don't like Mitchell since he is mean and tried to steal my pokemon and all my stuff, which I had no idea why, he never told my why, I think I should of asked? (See Chapter 2 for details!) And Uri just abandoned me like I am just something broken, I mean that is just is mean. He made me to worried, which made me believe that he got eaten by some angry hungry Stantler? (See Chapter 11 for details!)

Now that is not the point, I Need to concentrate on my journey not anyone elses, now I cannot believe that Nurse Joy sent us outside to leave the city, now that is just stupid because we are leaving, wait OI mentioned that before.

"Officer Jenny is going to be annoyed once she finds out the ones she could have had a fun time torturing just left the city and going towards the place where everyone get as lost and never gets found in there with a search party, Illex Forest." I commented as I read a sign saying 'Welcome to Illex Forest'
